HC Deb 18 July 1973 vol 860 cc124-5W
28. Mr. McElhone

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the number of young people expected to leave school in the Glasgow travel-to-work area this summer.

Mr. Monro

The raising of the school leaving age makes forecasting difficult, but it is estimated that about 7,300 young people will leave school in the area defined as the Glasgow travel-to-work area.
